Add tiny pasta shapes and tomato paste to some batch-cooked beans for a classic rustic Italian dish.
Ingredients
4 cups Brothy Bean recipe, (thawed)
156-mL can tomato paste
1 cup small pasta, (such as ditalini)
extra-virgin olive oil
grated Parmesan
Instructions
Gently stir Brothy Beans (thawed) with a tomato paste in a medium pot. Heat over medium until simmering gently, crushing the carrots, celery and garlic that are in the beans.
In a separate pot, cook small pasta (such as ditalini) in boiling, salted water, until just tender. Drain, then add to the bean mixture and simmer for 1 minute.
Serve drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and grated Parmesan.
